My wife's cousin lost his battle with PCa today. He was 66. I first met him in the early '70's.

It started with a diagnosis 12 years ago...a Gleason 9. He told me his biopsies were pretty much fully loaded with cancer and he underwent numerous therapies.

He was a good man all around.

May he RIP

Mike, my good friend, so very sorry to hear of this loss. This horrible scourge takes away too many good men, good husbands, good fathers, etc.

My sympathy to your wife's family.

We should talk soon when you get the chance.
